塞繆爾·厄爾曼
年輕，并非人生旅程的一段時光枣申，也并非粉頰紅唇和體魄的矯健。
它是心靈中的一種狀態(tài)看杭，是頭腦中的一個意念忠藤，是理性思維中的創(chuàng)造潛力，是情感活動中的一股勃勃的朝氣楼雹，是人生春色深處的一縷東風(fēng)模孩。
年輕，意味著甘愿放棄溫馨浪漫的愛情去闖蕩生活贮缅，意味著超越羞澀榨咐、怯懦和欲望的膽識與氣質(zhì)。而60歲的男人可能比20歲的小伙子更多地擁有這種膽識與氣質(zhì)谴供。沒有人僅僅因為時光的流逝而變得衰老块茁，只是隨著理想的毀滅，人類才出現(xiàn)了老人。
歲月可以在皮膚上留下皺紋数焊，卻無法為靈魂刻上一絲痕跡永淌。憂慮、恐懼昌跌、缺乏自信才使人佝僂于時間塵埃之中仰禀。
無論是60歲還是16歲，每個人都會被未來所吸引蚕愤，都會對人生競爭中的歡樂懷著孩子般無窮無盡的渴望。
在你我心靈的深處饺蚊，同樣有一個無線電臺萍诱，只要它不停地從人群中，從無限的時間中接受美好污呼、希望裕坊、歡欣、勇氣和力量的信息燕酷，你我就永遠年輕籍凝。一旦這無線電臺坍塌，你的心便會被玩世不恭和悲觀失望的寒冷酷雪所覆蓋苗缩，你便衰老了—即使你只有20歲饵蒂。但如果這無線電臺始終矗立在你心中，捕捉著每個樂觀向上的電波酱讶，你便有希望超過年輕的80歲退盯。
所以只要勇于有夢，敢于追夢泻肯，勤于圓夢渊迁，我們就永遠年輕！
千萬不要動不動就說自己老了灶挟，錯誤引導(dǎo)自己琉朽！年輕就是力量，有夢就有未來稚铣！
英文全文如下：
Youth
Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind. It is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees. It is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep spring of life.
Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity, of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease. This often exits in a man of 60, more than a boy of 20.nobody grows merely by the number of years; we grow old by deserting our ideas. Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust1 bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.
Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being’s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what’s next and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart there is a wireless station; so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from men and from infinite, so long as you are young.
When the aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with the snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you’ve grown old, even at 20, but as long as your aerials are up, to catch waves of optimism, there’s hope you may die young at 80.
Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind. It is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep spring of life. These are what I have and what we have at this period of life. So, I'm still young, yes, definitely ! Come on my fellow friends, show your energy and passion to this god damn world ! Let the universe hear our voice, see our cheek, hug our enthusiasm and witness our maturity. We're going to create a brand new future !
